Once cooled, remove swivel head from lower body and pour vin-egar through center tube of swivel head “neck”. Clear nozzle by insert-ing a paper clip into the brass spray tip located in bottom of lower body.
If you fill your Healthy Home Steam Mop Max cleaner with normal tap water, it is essential to check the water purification system and replace it when it is no longer effective. Change the filter when the bright green grains turn blue. If the filter is not changed at the appropriate time, calcium deposits will accumulate on the heating element, causing damage or reduced performance.Using distilled or demineralized water will maximize the performance of your filter.To order a replacement water purification system refer to the replacement parts section on page 10.
